Quote:I am shocked at how nonchalant he is about keeping Gus. It's obvious the guy cannot coach, and he never has them fully prepared for Sundays. He even admitted to taking the blame for "not having the team ready". How many times will it happen? Year four and we're getting blown out by a depleted aging Chargers team, and losing close games that were gift wrapped to you THREE times.


The problem is Khan has no football sense. His dream was to buy and own a franchise while exclusively manage the PR and financial side of the organization. He has put his trust into Caldwell, and will not make emotional/irrational decisions for the team itself. Which is fine, you know, for a couple years. After that though, what is the plan? What are your goals? You preach about having a winning culture, yet you and Caldwell agree on giving a proven loser in Gus, an extension. That contradicts your entire plan and what you publicly wanted to achieve for this franchise. Okay, whatever, you just want to see what he can do with all this talent. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt, because our talent was lacking the past couple years, and maybe they thought Gus could right the ship. He hasn't, we were embarrassed for two straight weeks, and he should've been fired a week ago after that poor display of "football" in San Diego. Now? We're going to let the fans suffer for an entire year AGAIN before we promise a better "next year". Sitting at 0-3, nothing has changed, when does Khan step up and say/do something?

I think you're right about khan's lack of experience hurting him, but I think he truly wants to build a winner and is willing to do what it takes. He doesn't know what he doesn't know at this point. Hopefully they can be successful somewhere along the line, because his experience of having one of the NFLs all time worst teams over a span of a few years (it really has come to that) and turning that into a perennial winner would make for a legendary story. Khan seems to be that kind of guy though. His story is already legendary, and I think he wants to turn this dumpster fire of a team into a winner to prove that he's THE man.


Khan's at a crossroads with the whole gus thing right now. No one expected this. Not you, me, khan, Caldwell, gus, no one. Either gus pulls a 96 jaguars and brings this team all the way back or he's gone. If we don't win the division, even if gus churns out 8-8 somehow, he's gone. If not I'll start to question the owner.
